Customers that download updates directly from Windows Update (Home<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>As already mentioned above, this scenario only applies to clients managed by WSUS\/SCCM with Windows 10 version 1703 (KB4041676), Windows 10 version 1607 (KB4041691), and Windows Server 2016 (KB4041691). And it only affects environments where the following conditions apply:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<p>WSUS\/SCCM Administrators that synced the October 10th update (KB4041676 or KB4041691) before 4pm PDT October 10 may still have these KBs cached.<\/p>\n<li>\n<p>WSUS\/SCCM managed devices that downloaded the October 10 KB4041676 or KB4041691 update with publishing issues and have devices in a pending reboot state.<\/p>\n<li>\n<p>WSUS\/SCCM managed devices that installed the October 10 KB4041676 or KB4041691 update and are unable to boot and\/or may land on a recovery screen.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Due to the incorrect delivery of the delta and cumulative update packages, there was a problem. Unfortunately, the two packages were cached, so that the issue could still occur in the wild, also, after Microsoft has stopped the delta package delivery. Three are several scenarios:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Scenario 1:<\/strong> WSUS\/SCCM Administrators that synced the Delta Package versions of KB4041676 or KB4041691 before 4pm PDT October 10 may still have these KBs cached<\/p>\n<p>WSUS\/SCCM administrators should re-scan for updates to automatically resolve the publishing issue. The issue is already resolved in WSUS hierarchies that have scanned since 4PM on October 10th. Ensure your upstream and downstream servers are in sync.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Scenario 2:<\/strong> WSUS\/SCCM managed devices that have downloaded and staged the Delta Package versions of KB4041676 or KB4041691 but have not rebooted to install  <\/p>\n<p>On clients, where the update has already been downloaded and is about to be installed but the machine has not yet been restarted, administrators can delete the file <em>pending. xml <\/em>(the steps are described in the <a href=\"https:\/\/support.microsoft.com\/en-us\/help\/4049094\/windows-devices-may-fail-to-boot-after-installing-october-10-version-o\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">KB404909<\/a>).  <\/p>\n<p><strong>Scenario 3:<\/strong> WSUS\/SCCM managed devices that installed the Delta Package versions of KB4041676 or KB4041691 and are unable to boot and\/or see a recovery screen<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft recommend an automatis repair and a system restore as described in the <a href=\"https:\/\/support.microsoft.com\/en-us\/help\/4049094\/windows-devices-may-fail-to-boot-after-installing-october-10-version-o\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">KB404909<\/a>.
